Gur is Jaggery and chana is roasted chickpea. Should we eat gur and chana once a week? Yes, especially for the married women. Eating in fasting state is better. Those who can’t eat gur and chana, they should eat a tablet of iron and folic acid every week to prevent anemia.
In astrology it is mentioned to eat gur on Sunday and chana on Saturdays.
All agreed that byproducts of gur are harmful like refined sugar etc.
Unprocessed gur can even be eaten by diabetics.
Anemia or Anaemia is a condition that arises when the amount of haemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying pigment of the red blood cells, is reduced. Those affected are pale, constantly feel tired, become breathless on exertion, and have poor resistance to infection.

Gur and chana during pregnancy help pregnant women for improving hemoglobin level. This is the main benefit of roasted gram and jaggery together.
